Financial Advisors — Core Fixed Income

PIA Core Fixed Income portfolios invest in the broad fixed income markets and are suitable for those clients looking for fixed income exposure to dampen the volatility associated with equities by providing a low correlation, income producing portfolio. These strategies invest along the entire yield curve and are managed for risk-adjusted yield and the potential for capital appreciation. The portfolios primarily invest in Treasuries, Agencies, Investment Grade Corporate Bonds and Mortgage-Backed Securities.

PIA’s core investment process balances the quantitative nature of our yield curve analysis and neural network methodology with fundamental research to produce a portfolio that emphasizes sector selection, yield curve positioning, duration management and security selection in an attempt to produce above average risk-adjusted yields in undervalued sectors, while providing an opportunity for capital appreciation. Risk measurement is an integral component to this process so that the portfolio is not biased towards higher risk sectors.
